If any one could help it would be great Im in a perl cgi and i need to post to a different cgi. I tried a form But i dont need or want a submit. I need it to not wait for a submitt button or action. Just want it once its done its code and altered the params its got to post and leave to that new cgi. Is there anyway to post and go to an outside cgi in a form or an other way but with post i tried a redirect but its using a get and displays my params in the url.

Hi, I think the best thing to do might be to print the form in a HTML page, but with all the type's as "hidden". And in the body tag, put this:

<body onLoad="document.nameofform.submit();">

Where nameofform is whatever you named the form. :) Then, for tht page, you can just say "Processing information" or something, while the onLoad automatically posts the info to the next script. :) I don't think there's a way to do it without having this "middle-man" page, except using get.. :)
